This book was weird and interesting at the same time.

Two rival serial killers.
One common enemy.


I know this book's going to be unhinged and I’m here for it.

This was my first dual author book, but my third Brynne Weaver read. It was very true to her typical voice, so I can only assume that Wolfe's style is very similar and I should add her works to my TBR as well! 

This story features two forensics professors who also both happen to be serial killers. The colleagues are rivals in any sense of the word, and come together only to take out a common threat as suspicions rise. From there, sparks fly, bodies drop, and their connected past catches up to them. It was unsurprisingly gorey, occasionally funny, and had the perfect amount of spice 🤌

“i wouldn’t just kill for kyrie—i would give my life. hell, i’d even let her take it.”

the separation between memories and real life is a little unclear, and i was unsure as to whether or not i’d finish this book after the first few chapters. however, i am so very glad i did. kyrie is a more developed character as her characterisation relates to her past, whereas jack isn’t as thoroughly developed. i loved the cat and mouse game that they played and how all of their pieces fell together in the end. definitely looking forward to reading more books by these authors!
